The restoration will add 389 native trees, along with boardwalks and overlooks, paths, a picnic area, and more for everyone to enjoy.

These additions will be great for humans, but the goal of the project is for our underwater neighbors. The restoration will support the recovery of salmon and trout species, which have not had access to the stream since the 1970s.

PP&R is the only parks district in the entire nation to be certified as Salmon-Safe. When the restoration is complete, salmon will once again be able to pass through the cool, clear waters of Crystal Springs Creek.
